Why buy beautiful materials if you're going to sav Why buy beautiful materials if you're going to save them for "later"? To be used "another day", in the upcoming epic project, not yet - then forgotten in a drawer for years? I don't get it. I just don't. Note to self: use it up, use it all up. Who knows what tomorrow will bring? What are you saving in a drawer for another day? #ihannasembroidery #embroidery #silk #silkyarn #embroideryfloss #broderi #broderigarn #useitup #usewhatyougot #usewhatyouhave #silkesgarn #silkestråd #broderigarn #använddetduhar #thankful #worldembroideryday #steffrancisthread #världsbroderidagen

Who else loves toys? I'm a big fan and have just s Who else loves toys? I'm a big fan and have just seen Toy Story 4 (after re-watching no 1 and seeing the other two as well earlier this month) - and cried just a bit a the end. Is it okay to love toys and dolls as a grown up? My answer is heck yes, it is. After a lot of fear and hesitation, I am embracing who I am and letting my inner child have a say not only on how I play in my art journal and studio, but also at becoming a toy collector and proud Barbie fan. And it's lovely, just lovely to be growing into your own skin and being who you truley are without fear of being judged.
